To the southeast of the imperial capital of the Great Wu Kingdom, tens of thousands of miles away, there is a high peak, solitary reaching into the clouds, like a pillar holding the sky.

It used to be called Tianzhu Peak.

But as a strong swordsman opened his sect on this peak and recruited many disciples, the peak was renamed Tianjian Peak.

And that sect is the Sword Immortal Pavilion.

Most of the monks in the Sword Immortal Pavilion are devoted to Taoism and do not pursue a luxurious life. Most of the places they live in are small courtyard pavilions.

In order to avoid disturbing others, and also to avoid others disturbing yourself.

These courtyard pavilions are not concentrated yet, scattered in the mountains. When candles are lit at night, they look like stars.

The green sword light flew past.

A female cultivator in blue stepped on her sword and walked through the dense forest to a small building in the forest.

"Master Uncle Li, junior Qiao Xinrong is here to visit."

After a while, a voice came from the courtyard: "Come in."

Then the courtyard door opened, and Qiao Xinrong stepped in and saw a man in Tsing Yi standing in front of a small pond in the courtyard.

He waved his hand and sprinkled something into the pond.

A big black fish jumped out of the pond, opened its mouth to swallow the thing, then splashed water and disappeared.

Immortal cultivators have a different understanding of size than ordinary people.

Although the monks of Sword Immortal Pavilion focus on Tao and don't care about other things, the courtyard they live in can at least support them in practicing various spells in the courtyard.

In this way, in the eyes of mortals, this courtyard is really huge.

Digging out a pond is nothing.

"Uncle Li."

Qiao Xinrong saluted respectfully.

"Well, since you are here, you must have seen your father's letter."

Zhou Ming turned around and looked at the girl in her early twenties in front of him.

Judging from his cultivation level, he is at the seventh level of Qi refining.

He couldn't help but frown slightly.

After being sent to the Sword Immortal Pavilion a few days ago, the Sword Immortal Pavilion admitted everyone directly without looking at age or qualifications.

The central area of ​​the Great Wu Kingdom is rich in aura.

As the Nascent Soul Sect, the Sword Immortal Pavilion was established on a place that ranked among the top spiritual sites in the entire Wu Kingdom.

With Tianjian Peak as the center, the spiritual energy concentration of the entire mountain range is comparable to that of a first-level spiritual land.

Within the Sword Immortal Pavilion sect, the spiritual energy is even more astonishingly rich.

Because of Zhou Ming's cultivation in the middle stage of foundation building, he was directly designated as an inner disciple and was given a courtyard.

The entire forest where the courtyard is located has a spiritual energy concentration that is directly equivalent to a third-level spiritual land.

In such a big environment, the number of spiritual trees and elixirs has increased sharply, and the resources are extremely rich.

The sect distributes a lot of benefits to its disciples every year.

Not to mention the inner sect, the treatment that the outer sect disciples can enjoy is much higher than the elites that the families in Falling Dragon City focus on cultivating.

Qiao Xinrong has a high-grade golden spiritual root. Under such environment and treatment, she is already in her early twenties, but her cultivation level is only at the seventh level of Qi training, which is obviously a bit low.

Or, she was tired of practicing.

Either that or he's in trouble.

"Yes, Uncle Li, I have seen my father's letter."

"Well, although your father asked me to take care of you, you still have to rely on yourself on the road to spiritual practice. Is there anything puzzling about your current practice?"

Qiao Xinrong said: "This junior is indeed a little confused right now. I would like to ask Uncle Li for some guidance."

Immediately, he expressed some confusion.

The more Zhou Ming listened, the more he frowned. After explaining his doubts, he said: "Although these questions are not basic questions, they are not difficult problems either. Why can't you solve these problems in the Sword Immortal Pavilion? "

"Or...are you deliberately teasing me with these questions?!"

Having said this, Zhou Ming's tone couldn't help but become a bit harsh.

Qiao Xinrong panicked and said hurriedly: "Uncle, I misunderstood! I really don't know the answers to these questions."

"Oh? Sword Immortal Pavilion doesn't even teach these simple questions?"

Qiao Xinrong smiled bitterly and said: "Uncle Master, you are new here. I'm afraid you don't understand the situation of us people in the Sword Immortal Pavilion. Those of us who entered through the Longling Pavilion are called the 'Dragon Spirit System' within the sect. ’, belongs to the excluded part of the sect.”

"Excluded? Why?"

"Needless to say, it's naturally because of our identities."

When the Great Wu State gave up its share of Longling Pavilion and allowed the three righteous sects to join, it was not their will, but the many righteous forces united to oppress it.

The subsequent negotiations on the conditions for joining are also full of invisible edges.

The benefits of serving as the leader of Longling Pavilion for fifty years are that on the one hand, it makes his subordinates work harder, and on the other hand, it also spreads nails within the three major sects openly.

The three major sects were not stupid either. They openly agreed to the conditions, but secretly they were constantly squeezing them out.

Even after so many years, there are many monks belonging to the Dragon Spirit lineage among the three major sects. However, the world of immortality respects strength, and the so-called strength in numbers is just a joke.

There are ancestors of Nascent Soul, and no matter how bad they are, there are many powerful Jindan masters. It’s useless no matter how many people you have here!

Still being squeezed out.

Hearing this, Zhou Ming couldn't help but frown.

Although he had never thought about fighting for power, he still had his own demands when he came here.

If the crowding in the Sword Immortal Pavilion is serious, then I am afraid that I will have to reshape a new identity and enter the Sword Immortal Pavilion again.

"What do you mean by exclusion?"

Qiao Xinrong thought for a while and said: "He never answers our questions in the big class. The pills distributed by Nature Hall every month are all of the just-qualified kind... Also, we people from the dragon spirit system, want to If you want to gain power, you must defeat the people of Sword Immortal Pavilion through sword fighting..."

Zhou Ming: ??????……

Blanch!

Is this exclusion?

As you said before, it was so serious. I thought the ostracism you were talking about was a group of people who relied on their strength to bully people. They did not distribute resources or provide them with skills and spells, and just killed people in the dark late at night?

As a result, the exclusion you are talking about is that you don’t answer questions in class, the resources are just qualified, and the superiors have to fight...

What's the difference between this and 'That person is so bad, I'm going to stare at him with my eyes'?

Those who know clearly you are punishing, but those who don’t know think you are being cute?

But it’s right to think about it. If it was really what I imagined, the masters of Longling Pavilion would probably not send their descendants to the three major sects at all.

Now this kind of exclusion can only be said to mean that the treatment is slightly worse.

But after all, they are three major sects.

Every month, there are sermons given by strong men, sect benefits, and many powerful techniques and tyrannical spells that outside monks can only dream of having access to.

Even if the treatment is slightly worse, it doesn't matter.

What Zhou Ming didn't know was that the exclusion from the three major sects was actually very serious at the beginning. Those who were sent to the three major sects were basically abused.

However, this incident aroused strong dissatisfaction among the many pavilion masters of Longling Pavilion, and they united with each other to counterattack against the three major sects.

Can't beat a fight.

All kinds of underhanded tactics in business are endless.

The two sides were at loggerheads for a while.

In the end, the situation was eased through mediation, and the three major sects also changed their original strategies.

This kind of exclusion that seems like a joke now is actually the result of the struggle of those seniors back then.
